Although this event is over for the year, you can still see the salmon runs over Kitsap County for a few more weeks!

Kitsap Salmon Tours

"Chum in the saltmarsh"

Although Stillwaters will not be participating in 
​Salmon Tours this year, come join others in your community and learn about the importance of salmon, your impact, and possibly see salmon heading up stream to spawn! 
Salmon Tours is November 6th, 2021 from 10am-2pm
The link below gives more information on where and what to see!

Why is Stillwaters not a location I can visit?

Picture
In years past, Stillwaters has participated in this event however, unlike the other places on Salmon Tours, the property along Carpenter Creek where salmon returning to spawn would be visible to the public is in private hands. Otherwise, coho and chum have been seen
passing under the South Kingston and West Kingston Bridges, but they don’t spawn in the estuary or salt
marsh so pass through relatively quickly at high tides, when they are most difficult to observe.  
​November 11, 2019, volunteer Art Lee got this
underwater photograph of a female salmon (probably coho) swimming upstream under the West
Kingston Bridge. The log in the photo is one of the old supports for the 5 ft diameter pipe culvert that
remains under the bridge since the 2017-2018 culvert removal project.
